[ Upstream commit 4243bf80c79211a8ca2795401add9c4a3b1d37ca ] I have a CD copy of the original Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon game from 2001. The disc mounts without error on Windows, but on Linux mounting fails with the message "isofs_fill_super: get root inode failed". The error originates in isofs_read_inode, which returns -EIO because de_len is 0. The superblock on this disc appears to be intentionally corrupt as a form of copy protection. When the root inode is unusable, instead of giving up immediately, try to continue with the Joliet file table. This fixes the Ghost Recon CD and probably other copy-protected CDs too.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
